Recent delivery experience at Kennestone?

Just now while reading other posts, I'm seeing quite a few negative comments about Kennestone. I'm curious if anyone will relay their experience within last 2 years delivering there? Especially if you have GD, used North Cobb Women's Health, or got the epidural. I'm having baby #6, and in the past had a problem with nurses not listening when I said to get Dr bc I was about to have the baby! I love my ob practice, just concerned about nurses. Also, if you remember any important policies and such, share that information as well please! Thanks in advance ladies!

I delivered there in May. I loved it. No problems. The nurses were all very sweet. One if them even came back to check on me after her shift. They respected all of my requests & birth plan. Ended up with an epidural & c-section after 20 hours, and it was all fine. The only 'policy' I can think of is they don't want any bedding, pillows, blankets, etc brought from home. There was only 1 nurse I didn't care for, but that was after I had the baby, and she wasn't THAT bad... Just kept pushing me to give formula and send baby to the nursery, which I wasn't going to do. I guess she just annoyed me :) but overall, a wonderful experience. Good luck!

I just had my experience ...now! Went in on Tuesday late, baby ended up being delivered via csection on Thursday at 443 am because my water had been broken for about 24 hours and she was stuck and had to come out. I was very very upset. Not mean or anything upset, but crying nonstop from the time the decision was made till it was over and I was back in my room. The nurses were all great. Actually, several of them that had been working with me the previous 2 data came to the o.r. Just for support. They didn't need to be there but they were there to hold my hands and make me feel better. That was awesome, but I was still really upset and crying a lot. Great experience, despite having a godforsaken csection and the complications that it caused.Post partum nurses I had have been great also! Especially Hillary. She's off tomorrow because she has to work Christmas, so I'm sad. I had a great group of Nurses the whole time. It's been a great experience. I'm still here. I want to go home, but it's not because of the service. I would recommend it, if you get my nurses :)

Thanks ladies! DH and I went for our tour today. They didn't mention no pillows though. :-\ DH won't be happy because he has several ulcers and has to be propped up to sleep, and commented how he'll need our pillows when he saw the beds in the rooms. Hopefully they're more comfortable than they look or I may have to get him to come home to sleep after ds born. I can't ever sleep in hospital so I need him rested so he can let me sleep the first night home! Again, thanks!!!
